Our Club kids had a blast Thursday at the DICK'S Sporting Goods, adidas and Big Noon Kickoff on FOX! ๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ’™ They practiced throwing the football, meet Kansas Men's Basketball players, customized patches and picked up some awesome giveaway items. One Club kid even went home with a $75 gift card!

A huge thank you to the Lawrence DICKโ€™S Sporting Goods team, Store Manager Jarred Meadows, adidas, and FOX Big Noon Kickoff for bringing this experience to Lawrence and including our Club kids! The kids loved shooting some hoops with Christian Reeves ( #32) and Keanu Dawes ( #8). Fun fact: Reeves is 7ft. 2 in. tall! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ KU Cheerleading, Big Jay & Baby Jay brought along some extra ROCK CHALK spirit. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’™

Weโ€™re grateful for community partners who create opportunities like this for the 1,300+ Lawrence kids we serve.

What do you think it takes to help every kid reach their full potential?

At Boys & Girls Club of Lawrence, we believe it takes ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—œ๐˜ ๐—ง๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐˜€.

It takes showing up for kids, every day.
It takes creating a safe place to belong. ๐Ÿ 
It is making sure all kids have caring adults in their corner. ๐Ÿ’™
It means providing opportunities to learn, grow, and discover whatโ€™s possible. ๐ŸŒŸ

Great futures donโ€™t just happen by accident. They are created when a community comes together and invests in kids. Thatโ€™s what ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—œ๐˜ ๐—ง๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐˜€ means to us.
